See the Temple of the Athena Nike, Phidias' sculpture of the goddess, and the Parthenon itself. Learn the wonders of Athens at the National Archeological Museum, where artifacts from prehistory to late antiquity tell the tale of the beginning of the modern world. Visit the Agora, the center of government in the 6th century BC, and be amazed at the fountains, temple to the gods, and the ancient drainage systems. Hike through sunlit trails of Greek Fir and Aleppo Pine in Mount Parnitha National Park, or take a cable car ride to Mount Parnes Casino at the summit. Stroll through the National Gardens, past ancient ruins, placid duck ponds, and a botanical museum. To enjoy the modern side of Athens, tee off at nearby Glyfada Golf Course, or delight in a fabulous yacht sail along the azure coast. Return to the hotel to dine on Mediterranean cuisine at Brown's Bar, or enjoy an American buffet with international touches at Amalia Restaurant.
